Hi,

This is really an implementation detail on the PE side, as in "it is
not relevant to the user side".  Of course, if you're using a relay,
the relaying router needs to understand what it relays and what the
response means - and again, that's an implementation detail the 
vendor in question needs to solve, nothing particularily confusing about
that.
